June 1, 2008 | HHTV

Special thanks to Marcos Portinari for clueing us into his "Hamilton de Holanda TV," a webcast library of some incredible, spontaneous videography of the one of Brazil's greatest musicians, world renown bandolimist Hamilton de Holanda. Marcos reports "The most recent news: we created on our website, an independent TV channel. We call it HHTV, videos from diferent places. Check it out--it is very funny; for the ones who understand Portuguese we are posting news episodes every 10th, 20th and 30th of the month. Next episode will be HAMILTON and PAQUITO D'RIVERA in a Portugal concert, May 24. Stay tuned--we hope to put translations."

This is truly amazing stuff! View Webcast

Also, in case you missed it, there are some great vids on YouTube: Mulato Beat

All Hamilton. All the time!
